When choosing a type of lawn grass for your yard, it can be confusing and frustrating as there are so many from which to choose. Picking a grass all depends on your climate, region, appearance and style you want. Choosing the type of grass that is best for your garden can ensure that you will have a beautiful, low-maintenance lawn year round.

It is important to understand the variety of commonly used grasses. Warm weather grasses work best for summer, although they do turn grayish, yellow or brown during winter months. Winter weather grasses are meant for winter seasons or colder temperatures and are often mixed in with warm weather grass because it is common to overseed with them.
